phrases which, if you hear them come out of your own mouth or anyone else’s, should prompt you to pause and reevaluate your situation:
- “We don’t have time to follow the official procedure.”
- “I can cut my own bangs.”
- “Do you think I should be wearing eye protection right now?”
- “I’ll just trim up my bangs real quick before we leave.”
- “You marked that one as “flammable,” right?
- “How long could it possibly take to properly trim my own bangs? Five minutes?”
